Suit Your Space

At Jali HQ, we’ve just been reminded how versatile a piece of furniture the dresser is. Such a brilliant way to solve so many storage problems – and don’t our clever customers know it!  This week, we part-assembled the big, beautiful, oak-veneered piece below, before delivery. And it was stunning…

But look closely, and you’ll see the right side of the lower unit is slightly wider than the left. This is deliberate, and ensures that, unlike a standard unit, it will fit perfectly into a less-than-perfect space between two walls. Our canny customer used the online Jali Designer to extend both the counter-top, and the upright to the side of the cupboards themselves. This allows the dresser to fit snugly into his particular space.

Alcove Situation – How It Works

This dream dresser, and the one shown below in a customer photo was designed using our dresser designer tool. This tool is available for you to use, totally free of charge, here. To work the magic with the two opposite sides of the unit, go into the ‘Advanced’ mode of the designer tool. Then click the ‘Situation’ button and choose the  ‘Alcove’ option.

A Dream Come True

You can then widen the upright sections to create insets of the required width on both sides.  Each can be different, to suit your particular room and situation. This ensures a seamless fit when viewed from the front even though the side panels have been set in. You see – real design magic!

There are several other options to ensure you get the perfect fit – I’ll be exploring these in future posts. But, in the meantime, if you have any questions, don’t hesitate to contact us.

So if you’ve always dreamed of a big (or small) dresser as a focus for all kinds of family fun, warmth, welcome and entertainment, not to mention keeping everything tidy, look no further than Jali. It will have the “wow!’ factor, it will fit your needs perfectly and, most importantly of all, it will be yours. And not just in your dreams…
